I found Phinizy Swamp to be extremely relaxing and enjoyable. The boardwalk through the swamp allowed us to get great views of the ecosystem that we would have otherwise missed. The grounds were meticulously maintained, as were the buildings I went into. Sadly we did not have much time so we only saw a small portion of the beauty this place has to offer. Highly recommended..

Not sure where to begin. So much wildlife, such a beautiful park. I have seen turtles , alligators, and armadillos here. That’s just to name a few of the critters I’ve seen. A lot of walking space. It’s a research center, so there are a few buildings the general public can’t enter but they have a tour I have not been on but I bet they explain a lot of stuff on it. Anyway, any age person would enjoy this place and if it’s your first time remember to bring some comfortable hiking shoes.
